Description

[Civil War]. Two Quarter Plate Tintypes of Soldiers. Two
images, 3.75" x 4.75" and 3.25" x 4.25", circa 1860s. The
first image, without a protective case, is a studio portrait of an
armed Union soldier, thought to be from a Wisconsin company. The
man is standing at attention with his rifle, wearing a sack coat
with a US belt buckle. The second image is also a studio portrait
of a young soldier with a rifle. From the comparative size of his
rifle, we can surmise that he was a rather tall gentleman.

Condition: The cased image has some wear on its outside and
it is missing one of the side fasteners. Both images are good
quality, overall.
